State Visit by Trump! Petition Time and OMG!
 
Here is the wording:
Prevent Donald Trump from making a State Visit to the United Kingdom.
Donald Trump should be allowed to enter the UK in his capacity as head of the US Government, but he should not be invited to make an official State Visit because it would cause embarrassment to Her Majesty the Queen

https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/171928.

I signed at 7:30 this morning and it was 929,120 and one hour later its 947,643 but its going up as I type. It's a bit like a witnessing a casino machine rack up a big win.

I've never seen anything like it!

UserSince2005 30-01-2017 07:44 AM

I do not believe so many people have signed it. Probably fake bots

These sort of petitions have to be legit. You have to leave your full name, postcode and email address.

DemolitionRed 30-01-2017 07:56 AM

Its going to hit 1 million this morning. Signing rate is up to 10 per second and this is the bussiest time of the day for most people.

LeatherTrumpet 30-01-2017 08:03 AM

lol, remember the numbers when he ran for pres? Just kids and facebook/twitter

No one takes petitions seriously any more

I would wager less than 20% can or have ever voted

DemolitionRed 30-01-2017 08:10 AM

Watch out for the petition reaching 1,042,000 that'll be 2% of the adult population of the UK! (52.1 million in round numbers)
3% will be 1, 563,000
4% will be 2,084,000

:dance:

This is going to be funny at the next PM question time.

Downing Street source dismisses petition as 'a populist gesture'

From the aqrticle Top Comment: Apparently the Million Britons who signed this petition don't understand that President Trumps TEMPORARY executive orders were issued to keep America safe while new vetting requirements are developed and implemented. His ban on immigration is not PERMANENT! As an American, I think that it's great to finally have a President who stands up for his country and puts Americans first....

Half of them are just jumping on the bandwagon anyway and have no idea what they are signing, following like sheep their friends family etc.Do they actually listen or read anything,this is a temporary thing at the moment,people just love drama.

It's pretty sad that this petition and protest in airports have more attentidence then his ignoration had. Wouldn't surprise me if he says it's only Muslims who signed this petition because he is that simple minded and ignorant too realise 80% of the world hate his guts

What a simplistic way of looking at things, illogical too.

We can't complain about a state visit about Trump because of Abu Hamza who is now imprisoned for life for his crimes? It wasn't exactly like he was allowed to roam free either, the legal proceedings took years because extradition takes time.

What would a petition have done about Abu Hamza when he was already facing legal proceedings? More importantly what the **** does that have to do with preventing a state visit from Trump? Very little, especially since a petition for the latter might actually achieve something.

Hehe but of course! Just as some of the people here claim that the petition is fake without producing any evidence for this 'alternative fact'.....

There's going to be equal amounts of left and right at this protest. The only people who won't be turning up are the far right.

I'm seriously thinking of joining Owen Jones etc in Downing St at 6pm tonight. Disgusted doesn't touch the hem of what I'm feeling about the bleached badger.

DemolitionRed 30-01-2017 03:07 PM

A hundred signatures every ten seconds and its not even the end of the working day.

I'd like to dismiss the EU Referendum as a populist gesture.

This is so historically important, I'm in shock.
